Good Ideas on new classes for Catacombs

[[TB] Benedictine]

How about classes from D&D's Unearthed Arcana:
(1)

Merchants earn their living trading goods. Often they are powerful and respected members of the town council and other governative organs, but the Merchants corporation is very powerful by itself."
Some have permanent warehouses in the flourishing commercial disctrict, other travel in far lands to take back to their land precious trasures. Adventurers merchants have a trading point to sell material goods such as tapestries, sculptures, gems and jewels which they often find in treasures.

I'd like to see 3 new PBAoE characters.

Albion......remember that programe on telly years ago think it was called Fantasy Island or something. Well... Albions new PBAoE caster would interupt the enemy by standing among them shouting "Da plane !!! Da plane !!!" over and over causing people to stick their fingers in their ears and shout back "Shut up you little bastard !!!".

Mids..... your new character is inspired by the late, great Freddy Mercury. The toon would look like Freddy from the "I want to break free video" complete with leather mini skirt and stockings. He would stand in the middle of enemy groups interupting them by wanting to vacuum under their feet. The enemy would be incapacitated by having to hop from one foot to the other and saying "Sorry" over and over again.

Hibs.... in keeping with your realms affinity with nature and inherent vegitarian ways I suggest that due to a constant staple diet of beans your new PBAoE toon should have a real bad gas problem. This toon stands among the enemy letting rip with real eye stingers. Enemy characters would be forced to grab their noses and say stuff like "For Christ's sake mate!!!" and "Holy Fuck was that you? !!".

Explain then, because I am easily confused. It's a sad, sad domino effect :/

well, just take a guess on why no race has acuity less then 60
also notice that if you add up all stats of a race and divide them by 8 the result is always 60 with no digits (the point pool remains the same)
